Default Talk about a fast truck!

This video was shot in Namibia, a country in Southwestern Africa. The car is traveling at 140km/h (88 mph) and is passed by a tractor trailer. I'm guessing the truck is doing at least 95 mph!

Here's a video from the Netherlands of a tricked out Volvo FH16 with big stacks and 610hp on tap.

HINT: it is located in the northeast.
